Wu Orthodontics Holds Another Dental Education Lecture


At Wu Orthodontics, we know that providing the best in orthodontic care to the community of Palo Alto is of the utmost importance. But you can't have comprehensive orthodontic care without outstanding dental treatment. That is why we reach out to dental professionals in the greater Palo Alto metropolitan region and host study clubs.

As our world advances, so does our dental and orthodontic knowledge. By staying on top of the latest technologies and procedures, we are able to offer the most advanced treatments for your teeth. And that's what you deserve!

Our next study club will be held at Wu Orthodontics on July 23rd. Dr. Paul Homoly will speak on advanced dental treatments. Dr. Homoly is a world-class leader in dental education. As a comprehensive restorative dentist and acclaimed educator for over twenty-five years, he is known for his innovative and practical approach to dentistry. He will discuss the distinctions between simple and complex care patients and provide practical tips for determining whether your patient is ready for complex care.

As always, we will have hors d'oeuvres. Hope to see you there!

Wunderful Work from Wu Orthodontics and Team



On Wednesday May 13th, our Wu Orthodontics team volunteered at the San Francisco Food Bank Distribution and Packing center. It is the hub where food and supply donations are received and packaged for over 135,000 homeless and underserved individuals for San Francisco. It is the largest distributor to non-profit agencies in San Francisco, providing dontated and purchased food to over 600 non-profit organizations. For many agencies, the SF food bank is their only source of food. This year, they will distribute nearly 33 million pounds of food, or enough to provide 70,000 meals a day!

Our Wu Orthodontics team sorted and boxed enough canned goods to feed an army for over a month! But boy were we sore afterward! As a reward, we then spent the sunny afternoon at a SF Giants game at AT&T park!

If you want to know more about the SF Food Bank, or want to learn ways that you can give back in the Palo Alto Community, give us a call at Wu Orthodontics.

Wu Orthodontics At Palo Alto Farmer's Market


Tomorrow is the first day for the Palo Alto Farmer's Market this summer!

Come support the Palo Alto community and taste a delicious selection of fruits and vegetables from local farmers. All proceeds from the market benefit Avenidas, an organization serving seniors in the mid-Peninsula area.

Wu Orthodontics will be there to join in the festivities. Dr. Wu will have a booth set up in the morning to answer any orthodontic questions you may have. Ask him to explain the Damon System and how self-ligating, low friction, and light force are ideal for adolescents in orthodontic treatment.

The market is located at Gilman Street and Hamilton, behind the Palo Alto Post Office. Hope to see you there!
